Mr. Merkel

Yes very broken

In the good ole days, common assault was a bind over to keep the peace and a £10 fine, done on the day of conviction so no more court time was taken up, I fail to see why they have to put off sentencing when he's been on remand long enough for enquiries.

I wonder why the sentence isn't mentioned

I would like to think there is more to this than what is being reported, to sack a 27 years service Inspector with no loss of rank option and bar him from working within law enforcement ( no references) seems pretty harsh. Lets see if he appeals .

Thanks gents for all the replies. All the best Tim

Thank you for that.

Thanks gents, you have confirmed my thoughts I will stick with my distance.

Afternoon all, I normally wear varifocal specs for my everyday use and distance specs for driving and clay shooting, the opticians today suggested that as I wear varifocal for my everyday use I should continue to wear them for shooting as my eyes and brain were used to them. In particular a pair that have with polarised lens that I use when fishing. This goes against all the previous advice that I have been told about shooting glasses, does any person on pigeon watch shoot with varifocal glasses without issues or problems and hit what they are shooting at. Thanks in advance Tim

Speedy recovery and get well soon.

I would think that bolt is to do with a greener side safety on the left side of the stock.

Well done, they look great

Also similar to above had mine years ago now I am sure the procedure has changed a little since, mine was done through my left arm no stint fitted just an examination of my heart following a suspected heart attack, remained at the hospital for a few hours afterwards then all back to normal. Wish you all the best for yours.

Very sad to hear this R.I.P.

Hypothetically speaking if I owned a farm inherited from my family to avoid this new inheritance tax when I pass, could I make the farm business and property a limited company. With the buildings and land as assets of that company, my wife and children as directors/officers, so when I turn my toes up my wife or children simply take over the role as the manging director. Would that be possible, not ever having run my owned business I don't know.

Looks lovely
